Today diesels provide the overwhelming majority of propulsion and electrical generating power for the world's fishing fleets. With such complete dependence on diesels, it is little wonder that the record high diesel fuel prices of 2008 caused a near panic in the commercial fishing industry. The influence of replacing old with new "eco-friendly" diesel engines is analyzed and compared with other possible actions aimed at reducing the fuel usage in fisheries.

Abstract
Today diesels provide the overwhelming majority of propulsion and electrical generating power for the world's fishing fleets. With such complete dependence on diesels, it is little wonder that the record high diesel fuel prices of 2008 caused a near panic in the commercial fishing industry. The influence of replacing old with new "eco-friendly" diesel engines is analyzed and compared with other possible actions aimed at reducing the fuel usage in fisheries.File in questo prodotto:
